 mmm ok, I'll try with install :D mmm just a question: how could I change the owner (I wnat to say, with that PKGBUILD it installs but the owner of archives is root, so it has no icon and an script to avoid making lmd --reconf doesn't works because it is an extra code that only works running lmd like root, and it conflicts because lmd can't be ran like root, so, in short, what I want it's a bash code to change the owner user of lmd when installing)

option: '-o' or '--owner=OWNER' See this and more in the man page

Ok, thanks, but the problem is that I can't set an specific username, because it has to be  the installer username and trying with $USER it equally sets root as user... I think (y tried with chown in a patch as well and this was the result)

Please send source tarball (or PKGBUILD, if it is the only file) that has the problem mentioned before (about image, etc.). Rafael

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59118 this is the package, you can download or see online the PKGBUILD there. I tried to use chown in this package, and it sets $USER as root :S

I was debugging your PKGBUILD and how the behavior of LDM, and I was not able to find any problem related to user permissions. Maybe you can enlighten me. Only problem I figure out is that when the ~/.LMD do not exists, running /usr/bin/lmd will report errors messages because it did not find ~/LMD/options... That is upstream's fault, as it should be able to figure out that ~/.LMD/options doesn't exist before trying to source it... Is this the problem you are having script related? Rafael

Yes, that's the problem I have, the source is made by a student, so it's not complete, and I added a piece of source that checks if .LMD exists and if it doesn't exists it is created, without having to make anything (sed -s '325s#then#then\n\t[ ! -d ~/.LMD ] \&\& lmd -reconf#' -i "${pkgdir}"/usr/bin/lmd)

yeah, I gave you this idea. ;) It has some problems, as LMD tried to source ~/.LMD/options (in line 5) before this piece of source. Also, why call "lmd -reconf" instead "lmd -reconf"? - not one of my brightest idea.

But as the program owner after the installation is by default root, it doesn't works... moreover, the program can't be run as root, so I tried to change the user, with chown, and after that, as it doesn't worked, tried with another script on the post_install

*if { [ ! -d /home/$USER /.LMD ]   then lmd -reconf   else echo "*\033[1;32m* .LMD already exists* \033[0m*"*

The problem is that $USER is root, so it works, but only on the /root folder, and it should do that on the local user folder

So, the problem is... $USER shouldn't be 'root', but the local user (in my case, for example, jorge). If I can do that I think the both two scripts will work... but I don't know how...

You did not understand. If we are talking about same issue, the problem is not a user permission related. See below the output I get when ~/.LMD doesn't exist and I run /usr/bin/lmd, installed with your package. This will happen only once, as in the second time ~/.LMD was already created: $ lmd /usr/bin/lmd: line 5: /home/rafael/.LMD/options: No such file or directory /usr/bin/lmd: line 6: source: /usr/share/lmd/langs/: is a directory /usr/bin/lmd: line 5: /home/rafael/.LMD/options: No such file or directory /usr/bin/lmd: line 6: source: /usr/share/lmd/langs/: is a directory -reconf completed ** (gtkdialog:12958): ERROR **: gtkdialog: Error in line 23, near token '</label>': syntax error /usr/bin/lmd: line 346: 12958 Trace/breakpoint trap gtkdialog --program=MAIN_DIALOG Solution to this issue is: replace 'sed' code you mentioned above with the patch I sent to the upstream [1] along with this line: patch -p1 "${pkgdir}"/usr/bin/lmd lmd-run-reconf.patch [1] http://code.google.com/p/linux-manga-downloader/issues/detail?id=4 Rafael
